VietNamNet Bridge – Le Van Bay, 47, from Tuy Phuoc district in the central province of Binh Dinh has discovered a fossil stump which is believed to be more than 10,000 years old.
The fossil stump is 51cm high, over 50cm of diameter and around 200kg in weight.

Bay said one month ago while he was digging sand on the bank of the Van Canh River in Binh Dinh province, he found out the fossil stump at the depth of over 5m.

The man initially believed that the stump was a rock with beautiful veins but it turns out to be a fossil stump.

Dr. Dinh Ba Hoa, director of the Museum of Binh Dinh Province, said that this fossil stump is over 10,000 years old.

This is the first time a fossil stump of thousands of years old discovered in Binh Dinh.

Hundreds of people have flocked to Bay’s home to see the fossil stump.
